Let B be the first alphabet and T be the sixth, then there are four words between B and T which can be arranged in 2 ! × 2 ! 7 ! ,because I and L repeat and there are 7 alphabets other than B and T. The answer is same even if B is second & T is seventh and B is third and T is eighth & B is fourth and T is ninth & T is first and B is sixth &T is second and B is seventh & T is third and B is eighth & T is fourth and B is ninth.
So, the total number of words that can be formed = 2 ! × 2 ! 7 ! × 8 = 2 ! × 2 ! 8 ! = 1 0 0 8 0
∴ 6 0 x = 6 0 1 0 0 8 0 = 1 6 8
